Not yet! but I will have to collect it at some point soon. I only started just before Christmas so it has been a bit of a stepp learning curve so far.
The emphasis of the project is actually on waste, and the idea that high quality coffees generally produce more wastage, both at the growing end and also baristas throwing out anything they don't think is up to scratch. What I wanted to know is if the average customer - and I am talking in chain coffee shops here, not the more gourmet customers - can actually tell the difference between high quality coffees and bog standard Caffe Nero fare. If they can't, then what are high quality, speciality coffees actually for?
Hope that makes sense....
When you came to Buenos Aires the currency was USD1/$1; but by 2001 we have a devaluation, and nowadays we are USD1/$3,2 (EUR1/$4,8).
I`m not sure how long our government will be able to mantain this to promote our exports. If you`re planning to visit Argentine in the future, I`ll suggest to do it as soon as possible.
Regards,
Federico

Hi Peter,
Thanks for all the information, I was just curious about your coffee as it`s not available in our country.
